Refugee Report: Dangerous Crossing – 2003 Update

Dangerous Crossing: 2003 Update chronicles the international community’s response to the May 2003 refoulement and the resulting moves by the Nepalese government to mitigate international outrage at the collusion between the Nepalese and Chinese governments. It also explores the impact that the growing Maoist insurgency in Nepal is having on the Tibetan refugees. The report looks at how the Nepalese government’s security response to the Maoists impacts the ability of Tibetans to secure safe passage through the Nepalese countryside, as well as the political dimensions of the conflict for Tibetan refugees living in and transiting through Nepal.
